it would be nice but I have a feeling that the FO does not want to sign ANY big money Free agents

I'd like for the FO to take a chance on Bryant but only if the money was right. I don't think they will more so cuz of his past character issues.

haha I don't mind spending a little money to get him. he's a good proven receiver, and we have quite a large amount of $$ to spend with Peppers walking. and as for character issues, Smith will smack em up a bit(literally? :P) to keep him in line.

if we picked him up, we might be able to address other needs with our 2nd round pick rather than a WR.

Yeah I get your point, but keep in mind most of that money they save from Peppers is gonna be used on players currently on our roster. It'd be nice to see him paired up with Smitty though. :)

Yeah I know, but the thing is it's not like Bryant is going to require some giant contract. He could probably be had for a great deal, I mean TJ Housh was worth more than Bryant currently is, and Housh is only making $7 million this year. We can easily afford to sign him and still have room left to get Davis/etc signed.

He would be a hefty price tag. However he and Smith would do some heavy damage. Couldn't afford to double team either of them if they're on the field at the same time.

Hell yeah It'd be like covering Boldin & Fitzgerald. Damn we still gotta wait another week for free agency to start I'm getting anxious.:P Though at the same time I'm not gonna hold my breath.

I would be fine with getting Bryant if he isn't expensive to keep. With how we're not paying to tag Pep, maybe we can have some salary left to sign Bryant once we signed Moore & others first. Maybe then we can get a DE or something on our first pick in the Draft instead of a WR.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.

      Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
